It is the last day of the races tomorrow and in order for me to guarantee first place I have to get at least third place in the last race tomorrow. Trent has already gone to bed as we had a late night and I have only just got into my own bed.

I pull the covers right up to my chin and I roll over onto my side in an attempt to get comfy, but no matter how much I toss and turn and rearrange my pillow, I can't get a wink of sleep despite the fact that I want to go to sleep and I am absolutely shattered.

Yet, I know what is keeping me awake. Him.

Every time I close my eyes, I see his eyes staring at me with a creepy glint embedded within them.

I eventually give up and I yank the cover off of me. My feet hit the soft carpet of my room and I tip toe across to the door to the bathroom. I reach out and push down the handle before entering the room.

My feet patter against the tiled floor as I make my way over to the door to Trent's bedroom. I open the door and slowly go into the room shutting it  as silently as I can behind me. Trent's snores echo throughout the room and a slight smile spreads across my face as I familiarise myself with his snores.

My heart is thumping in my chest as I cannot quite believe that I am actually doing this, all I know is that by me doing this is will hopefully help me get some sleep at least. I pull the covers away and lay down stiffly at first but when Trent sucks in a deep breath and his arms wrap round my waist and he buries his head into the crook of my neck. "Goodnight, baby." His lips press against the back of my shoulder gently.

I feel my eyes begin to droop and, almost instantly, I am snatched away to sleep.

Me, Trent and Kyle walk through the corridors of the track. I am dressed in my driver suit with my helmet gripped in my hand. Our feet patter along the hard floor as we make our way to the garage. "You feeling okay? Remember, just do your best and your need at least third place in this race in order to guarantee that you have gotten first place in the whole league. If you don't however, then we'll just have to see who else has taken the top three in the race today." Kyle explains and unlocks our garage door to reveal my blue Porsche nine five nine sitting there all ready to go for the final race today.

"I know, Kyle." I nod my head and open the driver side of my car.

"Babes, don't worry you are gonna do brilliantly." He wraps his arms around me and kisses my nose with a grin etched across his perfect face.

"You two get a room, please." Kyle huffs and screws up his face.

I go pink in the face and me and Trent separate as I go into my driver's seat. I take a deep breath and slip my driver's gloves onto my hands tightly. "I'll see you two when I have won this thing." I send Trent a wink and start my engine.

Kyle sticks his thumbs up at me and shuts my car door whilst I do up my seatbelt. I tug my helmet over my head and flip down the visor. Trent pushes the button to open the garage up and I drive out onto the track to my starting position this time it being fifth.

The guy behind me begins revving up his engine and I shake my head to myself as I know that the guy behind me is one cocky prat and he is the one that is the most threat to me in this race.

My eyes don't leave the red light that I am waiting to turn green and when it does I bite down on my lip and floor the accelerator. My car jolts forwards and I speed off down the track with the cocky prat right on my tail.

My palms begin to sweat and I continue to chew at my lip as I try to shake the guy from my path. I change gear and speed up faster but have to slow down quickly as I come to a sharp corner.

The car drifts across the track before I pick my pace back up and maintain first place throughout the whole race. When I cross the finish line something inside of me explodes and I grin uncontrollably. I spring out of my car when it comes to a stop by the side of the track.

As I get out of my vehicle, an explosion of cheers and screams greets my ears and I rip my helmet from my head. I hold it in the air in a celebration way.

Then the wind is knocked out of me as Trent sprints towards me and lifts me up into the air spinning me around very quickly. I grip onto his hoody tightly as I feel like I am about to fall. Trent stops spinning and I wrap my legs around his waist to help him to not drop me. "You have no idea how proud I am of you, babes, you've just won fifty grand!" He grins like a Cheshire cat from ear to ear proudly and Kyle comes over to us and wraps his arms around the two of us.

"Natalie, the biggest success that I will ever get. You are brilliant!" Kyle seems just as happy as I am right now and he isn't even the one who has just won the grand prize for this league.

"And I am proud to announce that the champion of this years Rome Rally Race League is, NATALIE HENDERSON!"

I step up onto the highest podium and an explosion of cheers and screams echo throughout the air. Then I see Franco, holding my trophy and big cheque for the fifty grand. My smile drops as he approaches me. "Congrats, I knew that you were talented." The pig smiles at me and I feel like I am gonna be sick.

I bitterly take my trophy and cheque from him and before I can say something to the Italian I am being smothered in spraying champagne.

I spot Trent in the crowd with a furious look upon his face.

Trent's POV-

No words can explain how proud I am of my girl. I watch my beautiful girlfriend as she steps up onto the podium with the biggest smile on her face. Then her expression drops and I follow her gaze to a prat standing with her trophy and cheque in his hands. "Fuck sake." I hear Kyle mumble next to me and I fold my arms across my chest in anger and frustration. My eyes watch him like a hawk as he hands Natalie her prizes.

My hands are gripping at my arms as I refrain myself from marching up there and punching his lights out.

Natalie told Kyle about what happened or more like Kyle managed to get it out of her considering she was being grumpy whilst she was doing a couple of practice runs.

Nat chews at the inside of her mouth and she only does that when she is worried and nervous about something. I let out a big puff of anger and I go to step forward but a strong hand on my arm pulls me back. "Trent, don't do anything. I know you want to and so do I but believe me it won't be a good idea." Kyle grumbles in my ear and doesn't let me go until I nod my head in agreement.

Hiya peeps,

So, Natalie won the fifty grand! Sorry if this is a tad boring but things will soon get a lot more interesting!

See you next week,
